I agree. Julia should get one.

Yeah, ok. These Alpha games run on the CPS2 board. Hardware a decade old. I'm pretty sure the PS2 can handle it. Pick Eddy. Button Mash. Win!

I'm disappointed he didn't say anything about Tekken. Itagaki interviews are no good without the Tekken hate.

What? They're arcade games. There's nothing special about the Dreamcast or Saturn. There's no reason the PS2 or Xbox ports couldn't be as good. It is not hard to make a good 3d fighter. Tekken has got a lot more tournament play than X-Men vs. Street Fighter.

No but I am more excited for DOAX2 than UMK3.

Oh god I saw the actual trailer for Tekken 6 and it looks horrible. The graphics look like Tekken 4. What is going on with Namco? There is no way that is actually Tekken 6. Lili is straight out of DR, it HAS to be something they just randomly threw together. 2001 graphics and insane price aside I am overall happy. I wasn't asking for much. Standard dual shock controller design + Lili on PS3. Good enough for me!

The screens made it look horrible. Like worse than T5. It looks like it has to be some kind of early place holder thing. I don't know why they would want to show that.

Well supposedly it's actually called Tekken 6 so I would think it would be totally new. I was just wondering if the footage shown was really just taken from DR as sort of a place holder. But I'd have to see it. I just saw some screens of it. Jin has a new shirt but Lili looks exactly like she does in DR. So it must be very early.

Apparently the "new" character is just Lili. If they are fighting in a church I wonder if it's the Cathedral stage from DR. So, I'm curious if this was really T6 or just some version of DR. Wish I could see just this and not the crappy conference.

Wait, there was a Tekken 6 teaser? Gamespot says something about Jin fighting a new blonde girl.

Whatever. Nintendo and Microsoft can't go 20 seconds without making ridiculous claims either. Kutaragi, Reggie, Moore, Itagaki and almost everyone else in the industry is crazy and nobody takes them seriously. If Wii is really 250 I think it'd be as dumb as the 600 dollar PS3.

I do think PS3 could lose some of Sony's market share, if Wii and 360 are really successful they could put a huge dent in it. But let's be real here...PS3 is almost certainly going to sell the most. PS4 is where things could go bad, I think.... I didn't see the video of Kutaragi. It doesn't surprise or offend me. Sony's ego is nothing new and nothing exclusive to that company. All 3 have ridiculous PR like that. Almost everything Nintendo says about Wii is obnoxious and pretenious. As for them using the motion sensor....nobody is going to care after like a month. Internet gamers are all "outraged" now but it doesn't matter. It's not like it's anything NEW either. The dual shock itself was Sony's answer to the analog stick after PSX was already out. Following is Sony's MO. The only people that care hate them anyway.

People on forums. DC beating PS2 was all the rage. Playstation is so strong Sony could make tons of mistakes and still sell the most consoles....

Handheld market is one thing, console is another. People thought PS2 was going to be a disaster too. Why would the industry crash? Sony has been good for gaming.

Sony will still dominate.

You can tell you wouldn't be able to play Tekken with it because of the handels. I wouldn't be able to hold it right. Ms. arcade dweller still uses a dual shock to play on arcade.

So the shape, Dpad and buttons are identical to Dual shock 2? Good..very good. Boomerang would have been horrible to play Tekken on.

I read Gamefan in the mid 90s. MK era. Then the art was some of the worst art I've ever seen in a game magazine and more pics than text. And yes Gameplayers was not as funny as they thought they were.

I always found Die Hard Gamefan to be overrated. The art like that monitor guy was HORRIBLE and they loved everything! This article is so true, they would gush over anything Japanese or a fighting game. The whole magazine was like 90% screenshots too.

It's not. It has more of the IMF team stuff than the other two. There's a good mix between the espionage and plot twists in the original to the action of the second. You know the opening to the original with the team infiltrating the party? The middle of this one has an extended mission like that with Hunt and an IMF team. I thought it was the coolest part of the movie.

I think of Sega as incompetent and Nintendo crazy. Both are dumb, but Sega does what they do because they don't know any better...Nintendo just lives in their own world where they're still in charge.

What did I ignore? When I talk about being sick of Capcom I mean only their fighting games. I like a lot of their other games.

Google, Yahoo, ect. are silly but they're not common words and they don't remind you of baby talk. A simple and fun name like those would make sense. Wii is just too out there. We is a word we use all the time. It's never going to feel right using it in a sentence. The spelling makes pronouncing it confusing. The explination about it representing the controllers people coming together sounds like something they just made up after already deciding the name. It's hokey and contrived. I don't believe they came up with this name because they wanted to symbolize anything, it feels like they came up with a weird name and spell it like that just for the sake of being different. It's ok as a logo and text.....it's stupid when you say it. Having the name be similar to a word like "we" is just awkward. I also don't think a name like this will do anything to get these mythical "non gamers" to suddenly buy a console. Gaming is bigger and better than it has ever been before. The status quo has made it mainstream. I do not think there are millions of people out there who will suddenly want to play games because of a simple name and controls. The whole idea of middle aged women and grand parents playing games because of the wand is just nonsense. These people that don't care about games do not think they are too complex or whatever.....they just don't care about games period. A memorable name or gimmick controller is not going to make them start playing. I am convined that in 5 years the gaming world will be.....exactly the same. The big audience will be young men. The latest GTA and Madden will sell millions more than any of Nintendo's innovative games.

I thought it was...ok. I don't regret seeing it and it did a really good job looking like the game but it just wasn't scary. There was hardly any suspense. They just kind of showed the monsters and that isn't enough. The CGI monsters looked cool but it never came close to really disturbing me. One of the things I liked was when . That was straight out of a survival horror game! I can totally see your character walking up, asking you if you want to do it then then watching that little cutscene. That was one of the few times I was actually somewhat worried about what would happen next. And the only thing that got to me was . I did not expect to happen and I was shocked they showed the whole thing.

It's horrible. I haven't understood Nintendo for like, 10 years now.
